Abstract: Chronic total occlusion (CTO) intervention requires specialised skill. While the risks of the retrograde approach require the procedure to be performed with onsite surgical backup, the antegrade approach is considered lower risk. In 2015 an “antegrade only” CTO program was established at Mackay Base Hospital (MBH).
